Partner intake

Partners

Build once. Operate with the same controls.

Four partner lanes — connector authors, implementation partners, adjacent platforms, and agent partners. One framework underneath all of them. Same approval boundary, same audit trail, same replay infrastructure as every first-party integration.

Four lanes

Where partners build with KarmanFlow.

Each lane has a clear scope, a specific build path, and a concrete value exchange. Find the one that matches what you do today; we will help shape the first integration so you land on the framework correctly.

Connector authors

Storefront, marketplace, 3PL, carrier, ERP, BI.

Build once with the connector framework and distribute to KarmanFlow tenants under the same auth, rate-limit, retry, replay, and audit shape every first-party connector uses. Source, Destination, or both — the framework handles the boilerplate.

Who fits

You operate a commerce platform with a published API and want a low-touch way for KarmanFlow tenants to ingest from or publish to your system.

What you build

A connector package using the SDK pattern: typed manifest (auth, scopes, rate limits, health), Source handler(s) for inbound data, Destination handler(s) for outbound delivery. Read /developers/connectors for the contract.

What you get
  • Same audit, retry, and replay infrastructure as Shopify, Amazon US, ShipBob, and Adyen
  • Discoverable in the in-app connector marketplace
  • Hosted health and freshness dashboards for tenant operators
  • Direct line to the platform engineering team during your first integration

Implementation partners

Agencies, system integrators, and operating consultancies.

Onboard customers, tune their operating defaults, run the Day-Zero playbook, and stay connected to the engineering team. KarmanFlow is built to be implemented quickly; you bring the operating context, we bring the platform that does not surprise you in week three.

Who fits

You run commerce, OMS, or supply-chain implementation engagements for retail brands, marketplaces, or B2B operators. Two to fifty consultants. You care about staying in control of your customer relationship after go-live.

What you build

Playbook templates, Day-Zero seed packs for your customer shape, custom dashboards on top of the receipt and event stream, and any tenant-side automation that does not require a code fork.

What you get
  • Preview workspaces for prospect demos and proofs of concept
  • Early access to feature modules before public release
  • Co-marketing and partner badging once the first customer ships
  • Direct access to the engineering team during implementation
  • Revenue share on customer expansion, scoped to your accounts

Adjacent platforms

CRM, OMS, finance, tax, subscription billing, loyalty.

We integrate, we do not compete on categories outside our operating layer. If you own customer relationship, recurring billing, tax engine, or commerce finance, we want your system in the picture. Mutual customers should not have to glue your platform and ours by hand.

Who fits

You own a category KarmanFlow has deliberately scoped out (per the partner-led decision framework in our public strategy). You have mutual prospects with us and a real API.

What you build

A bidirectional integration through the connector framework, or a deeper co-engineering partnership if there is a shared customer base waiting for it.

What you get
  • Co-engineering on the integration shape, not just a generic webhook
  • Joint go-to-market with mutual customers
  • Reference architecture and joint deployment guides
  • Partner badge in the KarmanFlow connector marketplace

Agent and AI partners

Model providers, agent builders, and skill authors.

KarmanFlow exposes commerce execution as typed tools through the MCP catalog. If you build agent runtimes, model platforms, or operator-facing AI products, your system can act safely on tenant operations through the same approval boundary humans use.

Who fits

You ship an agent platform, a vertical AI product for commerce, or a developer tool that lets operators wire agents into their workflows.

What you build

An MCP client integration that authenticates as a scoped agent identity, calls typed tools through the KarmanFlow MCP surface, and respects risk class enforcement at the boundary.

What you get
  • First-class MCP tool catalog covering inventory, orders, fulfillment, and customer service
  • Risk-class enforcement at the platform layer (your agents inherit, not implement)
  • Receipts for every agent action that downstream systems can replay
  • Co-development on agent eval frameworks and conformance gates
  • Listing in the agent partner directory once eval thresholds are met

The framework underneath

What every partner integration inherits.

Partners do not build approval gates, audit pipelines, retry engines, or conformance suites. The framework handles those uniformly. You build the integration shape; we provide the execution boundary it runs inside.

One approval boundary.

Connector, implementation, adjacent platform, or agent — every partner integration flows through the same policy and approval gates that protect tenant data. There is no partner-specific bypass.

One audit trail.

Every partner-initiated action carries a receipt with actor, scope, and decision. Tenants see what your system did without you operating a separate audit pipeline.

Replay and retry built in.

Outbound delivery, inbound ingestion, agent calls — every path supports replay and retry through the same dead-letter and recovery surfaces.

Conformance, not configuration.

Partner integrations are typed against the same manifest contract. Conformance tests run on every release; you do not have to maintain bespoke validation logic.

What partners get beyond the integration

Working with the platform team, not the partner portal.

We are early. Partners that land in the first wave get direct engineering access, co-build on missing surfaces, and joint go-to-market — not a self-serve developer console and a quarterly newsletter.

Direct engineering access.

During preview and first-customer rollout, partners talk to the platform engineering team. No tier-one filter, no support ticket queue. We want your first integration to land.

Co-build on missing surfaces.

If your customers need a capability that does not exist yet, we will co-design the contract and co-author the spec. The framework is built to be extended, not to be a wall.

Mutual go-to-market.

Joint case studies, joint demos, partner badging in the connector marketplace, listing on /partners once you ship. We tell your story alongside ours.

Revenue share, scoped to your accounts.

Implementation partners earn on customer expansion within their accounts. Connector partners earn on commercial connector usage where applicable. Terms set in writing before the first customer signs.

Honest scope

Where partnership does not work.

Three patterns where the framework fights the relationship. Saying so up front saves us both a quarter.

Partners that ship with us inherit the same primitives we used to build the first-party connectors. There is no partner-second surface, no privileged ingestion path, no parallel approval model. You get the same framework. That is the entire point.
